This game is a harder version than the previous SCT games but after a while you appreciate it,s depth and will probably keep you playing for months ? it,s just a shame more effort could not of been put into the visual side of it which are not much better than SCT 2 ! I expect more from next gen games !I think it wins on the gameplay against Vitua Tennis 3 but loses on the Graphics ! can,t compare against Top Spin 3 as I havn,t played it. You can play 6 games and 5 sets if you like which is a very realistic touch if you have the time and the players gameplay is actually affected by fatigue,you slow down and your shots are weaker and less acurate which is very realistic.
